What will I learn?
You will build a comprehensive understanding of how gender operates as a social and cultural system across the world's societies. The course covers foundational theory, cross-cultural gender diversity, feminist anthropological frameworks, and the relationship between gender, kinship, and political economy. You will examine how bodies, religions, media, and digital platforms shape and reinforce gender norms. Applied modules teach you to design gender-sensitive programmes, conduct ethical fieldwork, and engage with human rights advocacy. By the end, you will be equipped to analyse gender inequality at both structural and everyday levels.
